🚨 "STOP RECORDING ME NOW" — What do you do when a cop says these 4 words? You're on a public sidewalk. You pull out your phone. Suddenly an officer walks straight up to you, finger in your face, demanding you stop filming. Most people freeze. Most people delete the video. Most people are wrong. In this video, former prosecutor turned criminal defense attorney Ethan Holloway breaks down the EXACT word-for-word script you can use to legally protect your right to record the police — backed by real federal case law that applies in every state. ✅ The ONLY 2 situations where police can legally stop you from recording ✅ The exact words to say (screenshot-worthy) ✅ Real federal cases: Glik v. Cunniffe & Turner v. Driver ✅ Why "Riley v. California" protects your phone from being seized ✅ The 3 mistakes that turn a legal recording into an arrest ✅ How to handle officer push-back without escalating ⚖️ Your phone is the single most powerful tool you have to hold police accountable. Don't lose that protection because you didn't know your rights. 📌 The fight is NOT on the roadside. The fight is in court. 👉 SUBSCRIBE for weekly know-your-rights breakdowns 💬 COMMENT below: Have YOU ever been told to stop recording? 🔔 HIT THE BELL so you never miss a video ⚠️ DISCLAIMER: This video is for legal education purposes only and does not constitute legal advice.
